Part I DICTATION (15MIN)

Eco-tourism

Nowadays many of us try to live in a way that will damage the environment as little as possible. We recycle our newspapers and bottles; we take public transport to get to work; and we try to buy locally produced fruit and vegetables. And we want to take these attitudes on holiday with us. This is why alternative forms of tourism are becoming popular in the world. There are lots of names for these new forms of tourism: responsible tourism, nature tourism, adventure tourism, educational tourism and more.

Although everyone may have a different definition, most people agree that these new forms of tourism should do the following: first, they should conserve the wildlife and culture of the area; second, they should benefit the local people; third, they should make a profit without destroying natural resources; and finally they should provide an experience that tourists want to pay for.

PART Ⅱ LISTENING COMPREHE (20 MIN)

SECTION A CONVERSATIONS

Questions 1 to 3 are based on the following conversation.

M: Ruth, do you know something about the Ethical Consumer Research Association?

W: Yes, so far as I know, it's an organization that provides information for shoppers.

M: Oh, what kind of information?

W: [1]Well, like letting shoppers know what the companies are doing behind the products that they see on the store shelves. And... and these shoppers are concerned with some ethical issues.

M: For example?

W: [1]Well, they may want to know that the product they're buying hasn't been made at the expense of the people who are producing it, whether it's in this country or abroad. They might also be concerned with other kinds of issues: for example, whether the company is involved in selling arms.

M: But how can one become an ethical shopper when buying things?

W: One way of thinking about ethical shopping is thinking about buying less.

M: Oh, how?

W: Well, you see, sometimes we buy a lot more than we need. We buy more items of clothing than we need. [2][3]So being an ethical shopper really means thinking a bit before you go and spend your money in the shops.

M: Could you give me some advice?

W: You see, some things may cost a bit more in the short-run, but be worth it in the long-run. So, if you are paying for quality, somethingwill last you longer and then save you money.

M：Mmm...

W: And sometimes you can buy things second-hand, and the quality in most second-hand shops is really very good these days.[2][3]So it's about thinking before you shop.

M: Ruth, thanks for your advice.

W: Pleasure.

Questions 4 to 7 are based on the following conversation.

M: Come sit down, Mary.

W: Thanks, Mr. Davies.

M: Now, which course are you doing?

W: I am doing management studies with English and German.

M: Uh-huh. How's it all going?

W: [4]Well, it's not going too well. I'm not really enjoying the course. And... well, I am not very happy.

M: All right, let's take things slowly. Tell me something about the course.

W: [4]Well, there is just so much work. [5]I thought that to do two languages with management studies would be very useful, but I find the management course very difficult sometimes. And then to study English and German too, it means I am working all the time and I never have time to relax.

M: What about your accommodation? Are you happy with that?

W: Not really. I mean the other students on my course are living in the student dormitory. So they see each other all the time. I am living in the rented room in a family house. I eat breakfast and dinner with the family. [6] But I get lonely in the evenings and at weekends.

M: So, making friends is a problem too.

W: Yes.

M: OK.I am going to make two suggestions.

W: All right.

M: First, which of the two languages do you enjoy most?

W: English Ifind it easier too.

M: So I'd like you to go and see your German tutor and say that you are going to stop attending German classes for the moment.

W: OK.

M: Next, [7]I think you should go to each of the five student dormitories, choose the one you like best and ask if you could move in there.Students are always moving in and out so that shouldn't be a problem.

W: Thanks a lot for your advice.

M: Not at all.

Questions 8 to 10 are based on the following conversation.

M: Hello, Yvonne.

W: Hello, Bob.

M: [8]You know today is a very special day. That's the 20th anniversary of the World Wide Web.

W: Ah, the World Wide Web. It's really changed our lives. And... and in such a short space of time.

M: Hmm... definitely. Now, do you know, on average, how long does someone spend surfing the net each day?

W: Umm, honestly I don't know. But I guess people must spend a lot of time on things like Facebook.

M: Hmm... that's true.

W: And I'm sure almost everyone uses the internet now-but I wonder how we'd cope without it?

M: Well, it might be a bit difficult without it.

W: I guess so. For instance, some people need it for social relationships.

M: Yes, especially those who are far away. Keeping in contact with friends and family would be impossible without the internet.

W: [9]But are there people who would cope without the internet?

M: Yes, there are. These people have some alternatives.

W: What kind?

M: For example, we could write to each other like we used to before we had the internet. It would be lovely to get more hand-written letters from friends and family rather than just e-mails, I think.

W: That's what we call 'snail-mail'. But of course, lots of more paper would mean that we'd need bigger file cabinets.

M: Yes, well, it's still incredible how the World Wide Web has expanded in twenty years, and how much we now rely on it.[10]I wonder what it will be like after another twenty years.

W: Well, for better or worse, the web will have a greater impact on our life and society.

SECTION B PASSAGES

Questions 11 to 13 are based on the following passage.

If you are a resident you will find it useful to open a bank account. All the large banks have a network of branches across the country and all offer similar services.

A visit to any one of them will be a friendly experience. However, to open an account, you have to be prepared to prove your identity in a number of ways.[11]You will find your passport useful but the bank will also want to see some form of proof that you are living where you say you are. This can be proved by a housing rent book, a tax form, water or electricity bill for the property, as long as it's in your name. [11] [12]In the bank, and elsewhere, you may hear the term 'utility bill'-this simply refers to bills relating to the provision of services to your home such as electricity, gas, water and telephone.

[13]There are other local facilities such as post offices where you can save your money and have access to affordable low cost loans. Where they exist in your local area, contact details can be obtained from the Citizen's Advice Bureau.

Questions 14 to 17 are based on the following passage.

Life is very stressful nowadays, so it is useful for us to talk about how to cope with stress. If you want to reduce some stress, you can reduce this by the word S-T-R-E-S-S that's stress. Let's begin with the 'S' . [14]'S' is that you can have the 'scheduling', for example, you don't have to schedule too many things in your day and if you feel you are too busy, you can cut out an activity or two.

And 'T' is 'treat your body well', because experts say that exercise can reduce stress and also if you eat healthy food, then your brain and your body get the nourishment they need.

The next letter is 'R'. 'R' means 'relax'. [15][17]You can do an activity you enjoy or that relaxes you, maybe you can reada book or learn a new hobby and even spend time with your pet and that could make a difference.

And the next letter is 'E'--'E' is about expectations. [16]This means, be realistic about yourself and others. So you can just do your best and don't try to be perfect and don't expect others to be too That will release and reduce a lot of stress for you and the people around you.

And the next letter is 'S' 'S' stands for sleep'. If you get a good night's sleep, [17]then it will keep your mind and your body in shape.

And the last letter is 'S' again which means 'smile'. [17]lfyou smile and have confidence, you will think in a more positive way and then youwill feel more comfortable when you are coping with the stress.

Questions 18 to 20 are based on the following passage.

New words enter the English language all the time. In factEnglish has always been in a state of evolution and in recent years more and more words and phrases have entered the language. But where do all these new words come from?

Words come out of the culture that they represent and they describe [18]so if you've got a new development in medicine, for example bird flu, then you'll get a new word coming out of that. If there's a military conflict that may well bring all sorts of new words to the fore. Going back in time the First and Second World Wars were times of great creativity of language because people from different countries met each other and exchanged their words and words developed from there. [18]So words come from the playground; they come from politics; they come from any area of life because every area of life is changing from day to day.

And does English have more words than any other language?

It certainly has more than other European languages and probably more than any other language in the world. [20]English is put together from so many different bits. [19]Originally it was a Germanic language and then after the Norman Conquest in 1066 there was an enormous influx of French words. And it comes from a country, the United Kingdom, which was quite an expansive, trading, colonial power in the past and all these have brought all sorts of other new words into the language.

News Item 1 (For Questions 21 and 22)

A person walking on the shore at Ashkelon on the west coast of Jerusalem made the discovery, the authority said

The statue fell into the sea when the cliff collapsed as a result of the storm. The collapse also ruined a bath house and mosaics that had been in the cliff for many hundreds of years.

The storm. one of the strongest Israel has experienced in recent years, brought winds of more than 100 kph that sent 10-meter waves crashing into Israel's coast.

News Item 2 (For Questions 23 and 24)

[23]Canadian police and military teams were working Tuesday afternoon to rescue about 300 people stranded after what a local official termed the most brutal storm to hit the Ontario region in 25 years.

Ontario Provincial Police initially reported about 360 vehicles and about 300 people had been stranded near Sarnia, Ontario, on Highway 402-a major thoroughfare linking the U.S.-Canada border to London, Ontario.

[24]Some of those people have since been rescued, but Sarnia Mayor Mike Bradley said it could be another 24 hours before everyone is taken to safety.

News Item 3 (For Questions 25 and 26)

A tough anti-smoking law has taken effect in Spain. The ban-one of the strictest in Europe-outlaws smoking in all bars and restaurants. Smokers will also be prohibited on television broadcasts, near hospitals or in school playgrounds.

The law tightens anti-smoking restrictions introduced in 2006.

[25]The anti-smoking rules introduced in 2006 0utlawed smoking only in the workplace. It let bar and restaurant owners choose whether or not to allow it. Most chose not to impose any ban.

Only large restaurants and bars were obliged to provide a smoke-free area.

[26]Now, hotel, restaurant and bar owners have said they could face a 10% drop in trade with the new rules. The industry has already seen a sharp fall in sales due to Spain's economic problems.

But doctors argue the new legislation will help smokers give up.

News Item 4 (For Questions 27 and 28)

Police in India have arrested a Citibank employee accused of cheating clients out of millions of dollars.

Shivraj Puri, 32, who is expected to appear in court later, told an Indian newspaper he was innocent.

The bank has said investors were promised quick, high returns from a bogus financial scheme.

It is alleged that Mr. Puri transferred the money into accounts controlled by three relatives.

[28]Mr. Puri reportedly handed himself in on Thursday, a day after police said he was wanted for questioning.
